Medifast Compared to Atkins
Atkins is a low carb diet which encourages participants to eat foods high in proteins and low in carbohydrates. Medifast Meals, while low in fats, contain an optimal proportion of proteins, carbohydrates and other nutrients.
Dieters who choose the Atkins weight loss plan must continually review and measure the foods they are allowed to eat, along with shopping and cooking. With Medifast you don't have to worry about measuring or cooking thanks to our pre-packaged meals which are nutritionally balanced, quick and convenient.
Atkins offers Atkins Advantage shakes and bars with limited carbs. However, Medifast's shakes, bars and other Medifast Meals have fewer calories, less fat, and are more nutritionally balanced than Atkins Advantage. Furthermore, Medifast provides a wider variety of foods (more than 50) that keep you feeling healthy and satisfied. With Medifast Meals, you can eat six meals a day, so you never feel hungry.
Low-carb diets have recently come under some criticism as being too high in fat and not promoting good eating habits. For more than 25 years, Medifast has promoted balanced nutrition and 5-6 meals/day, which is supported by much of the medical community.
